Live It Down Lyrics

the planet's lost
and all I need
to line my bed
with handkerchiefs
to bay my fatigue
to build a case
for true love lost
and lives erased
to live guilt free
in a foretold destiny
he found a hill where he
stakes his claim
and he´ll
build a house
where he´ll
martyr his children

the trees wheeze out
the ocean rise
he´s gaining ground
in his high-rise
and all proceeds from
rewritten history
in fairy tales that he
still believes
he breathes and thrives and he´s
immunized but he´s
paralyzed 'cuz he´s
sure to die off

soon running for the middle
higher ground but lower
while all the coasts are running off
cold water boils
mother earth´s rage
his house and family have
washed away
where was his savior
his promised road
he followed every rule they
ever sold
he saw his world as a
vapor life support
we colonize and we
multiply as we
suck it dry yeah we´re
sure to die off

live it down, live it down, live it
live it down, live it down, live it
live it down, live it down, live it down
